Mr Brown was born in a poor family. He couldn't go to school when he was young.
Now he's a porter and works at a station. He doesn't think it necessary to know some knowledge of
science. His son. Bill, began to go to school last year. The boy likes nothing except playing.
He doesn't listen to the teachers in class and can't do his homework after class. It's the hardest thing for
him to do math exercises. And he wants to drop it.
Last evening Mrs Brown heard Bill crying in the next room while she and her husband were watching
TV. She came up to him and asked, "What's the matter, Bill?"
"I can't do my math homework," said the boy, "I won't go to school tomorrow!"
"No, no, don't do that!"said the woman."Maybe your father can help you."Then she asked her husband to help their son with his math. Mr Brown said, "But I don't know math, either. "
"It doesn't matter," said his wife. "You'll only coax him out of crying." Mr Brown had to do as his wife
said. The next afternoon Bill came back and showed his exerctse book to his father. The man had a look
at it and shouted to his wife, "Come here quickly, dear! I got an A in math!"
